Additionally, a small background south swell continues for other islands. The next small, long period south swell energy will arrive either late Sunday or Monday.

Surf along other shores will remain small until moderate trades return late this weekend, providing a slight boost to east facing shores. Multiple rounds of tiny northwest swell energy will reach north and west facing shores this weekend into early next week as the storms tracking near the Aleutian Islands become increasingly active.
